Here are some special initiatives that you could participate in:

African American Read-In -- Host a Read-In in your school, church, community, or place of business. Anywhere you can sit and read a book.

Advocacy Day/Month -- Join us for NCTE's Literacy Education Advocacy Day on Thursday, April 23, 2009, in DC. There are ways to participate for the everyday in the month of April.
Grassroots Advocacy -- A few minutes of your time can make a difference. Email, call, or write your legislator and let them know how you feel about issues taking place locally, in your state and throughout the country.
